Zinc Pyrrolidone Carboxylate
Cosmate®ZnPCA,Zinc PCA is a water-soluble zinc salt that is derived from PCA, a naturally occurring amino acid that is present in the skin.It’s a combination of zinc and L-PCA, helps regulate the activity of the sebaceous glands and reduces the level of skin sebum in vivo. Its action on bacterial proliferation, notably on Propionibacterium acnes, helps limit the resulting irritation.

Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a keto carotenoid extracted from Haematococcus Pluvialis and is fat-soluble. It exists widely in the biological world, especially in the feathers of aquatic animals such as shrimps, crabs, fish, and birds, and plays a role in color rendering.They play two roles in plants and algae, absorbing light energy for photosynthesis and protecting chlorophyll from light damage. We obtain carotenoids through food intake which are stored in the skin, protecting our skin from photodamage.
Studies have found that astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that is 1,000 times more effective than vitamin E in purifying free radicals produced in the body. Free radicals are a type of unstable oxygen consisting of unpaired electrons that survive by ingesting electrons from other atoms. Once a free radical reacts with a stable molecule, it is converted into a stable free radical molecule, which initiates a chain reaction of free radical combinations.Many scientists believe that the root cause of human aging is cellular damage due to an uncontrolled chain reaction of free radicals. Astaxanthin has a unique molecular structure and excellent antioxidant capacity.

Ceramide
Cosmate®CER,Ceramides are waxy lipid molecules (fatty acids), Ceramides are found in the outer layers of the skin and play a vital role ensuring there are the correct amount of lipids that are lost throughout the day after the skin is exposed to environmental aggressors.Cosmate®CER Ceramides are naturally occurring lipids in the human body. They are essential to the skin’s health as they form the skin’s barrier which protects it from damage, bacteria and water loss.

Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate
Cosmate®AcHA,Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate (AcHA), is a specialty HA derivative which is synthesized from the Natural Moisturizing Factor Sodium Hyaluronate (HA) by acetylation reaction. The hydroxyl group of HA is partially replaced with acetyl group. It owns both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties. This helps to promote high affinity and adsorption properties for the skin.

Ethyl Ferulic Acid
Cosmate®EFA,Ethyl Ferulic Acid is a derivate from ferulic acid with antioxidant effect.Cosmate®EFA protects skin melanocytes from UV-induced oxidative stress and cell damage. Experiments on human melanocytes irradiated with UVB showed that FAEE treatment reduced the generation of ROS, with a net decrease of protein oxidation.
